Maven versus GUMP

I'm trying to determine if I should look into using
GUMP in combination with (or instead of) Maven.

In essence, I need to solve most of the problems that
GUMP purports to address, but I am already somewhat
familiar with Maven.  It seems that something like
CruiseControl/Maven might meed the same goals.

Any thoughts?

Thanks Brett.

Do you know what that recently added Maven switch is?

Gump supports Maven to some extent.

CruiseControl and gump have similar but different goals.

Gump is only of interest to you if you always want to build everything
from the latest of everything else. It focuses on seeing the effect of
other projects on your project.

CC focuses on making sure your projects build independantly and in
association with each other according to the dependency versions you
have specified. Incidentally, they have recently added a maven switch
that allows you to use it more like gump.

I personally use cruise control for my personal use - it is a lot
easier to set up for your own  instance, and more familiar for Java
folk.

Cheers,
Brett
